The superb artesian power Of Yank-
ton, Dakota, is nowhere in the world
equalled for its superior advantages for
manufacturing purposes. The subter-
ranesn flow is inexhsustable, and can be
reached at q depth Of only 600 feet at g
cost not exceeding that of o steam en-
CINE OF equal power. No expense or
care rs needed to run the machinery after
once placed in motion. The power is
even and perpetual and without the
slightest danger to either life or prop
erty. An illustration of the advantages
OF this wonderful power may now be
seen in Yankton in full operation, which
no man interested or not can afford ia
miss seeing and investigating.
This is the frst experiment. Improve
ment on the present we'll and its con-
nections (which is fully equal to fifty
korse power) will necessarily follow and
will doubtless prove the greatest, grand
est SUCCESS for manufacturing purposes
in existence. So far superior to coal OF
gas that there is no comparison. The
citizens OF Yankton are decidedly anxious
to develop her superior advantages and
for this reason have united in giving
their support to enterprise. As will bt
seen by the foregoing list this donation
they freely give for honest enterprises
Do not hesitate TO make this matter Q
subjsct OF your early investigation This
offer will not always stand. When Yank
ton and her wonderful advantages ar,
known by the capitalists Of America hel
locations will be worth q premium.
